The Right to See Your Loved Ones

Grandparents may find themselves as an unexpected victim of a divorce case when their right to visit their grandchildren is unexpectedly taken away from them. An attorney-mediator from Alternative Divorce Solutions will closely examine your exact situation and then guide you to the best possible outcome.

Grandparents can legally file for visitation in California under the following circumstances:

  • If the grandchild’s married parents are living separately
  • One parent has disappeared or has their whereabouts unknown
  • The grandchild does not live with either of their parents
  • The grandchild has been adopted by a step-parent
In order to secure these visitation rights, an attorney-mediator from Alternative Divorce Solutions will work to demonstrate a relationship and bond between grandparent and grandchild has been placed at risk by the visitation being denied. By demonstrating that grandparents’ visitation rights are within the child’s best interests, the court can create and enforce legal visitation rights for grandparents.
